Asset Tracing & Recovery (Law Firms) - Global-wide
What the Team is Known For
Strengths
PCB Byrne has a strong partner team well supported by more junior team members.
PCB Byrne are fantastic and at the top of their game; they have a huge number of partners who specialise in global asset tracing, they're a huge name in the London market, and I'd refer work to them.
PCB Byrne are distinguished lawyers, they prepare excellent strategy, and I'm very satisfied. They've done some very novel litigation and they're not afraid of doing difficult cases.
Work Highlights
PCB Byrne represented the trustees of 11 Liechtenstein trusts and a Liechtenstein foundation in Perry v Lopag, cross-border litigation proceedings concerning over USD600 million of assets held on behalf of an ultra high net worth Israeli family.
